CHS Student Diary

A transparent plastic Pencil Case

Non-shatter ruler

A pencil sharpener and eraser

Box of 12 coloured pencils

A compass and protractor

A glue stick

3 lead pencils (B, HB, 2H)

Please note

Year 7 students are taught Mathematics several periods a week. For each lesson, in addition to the usual writing equipment, they will need to bring a ruler, a protractor, a pair of compasses and a scientific calculator. We recommend a scientific calculator, the Casio FX83GT+, which will be suitable for use throughout their time at the school.

USB

Every child will be provided with a memory stick. It is the child's responsibility to keep the USB safe. A replacement USB will cost £3.00.
